I have a problem with my girlfriend's '92 Camaro V8. While driving home the other night the power steering bracket broke into hundreds of pieces, and the alternator which was attached, came loose and also broke. I managed to get the car home and now I'm going to attempt to fix it. I've never worked on a car before so please bear with me. I went to the junkyard and got a new bracket and a new alternator. The problem is I need to remove the power steering pulley to get what's left of the old bracket off. Someone told me I need to rent a "puller" from Autozone for $40. Is this correct? And if so, is this something that requires alot of knowledge to use? If I thought I could get the car to my mechanic, I'd try. But I don't think I'd make it, and I'd prefer to avoid a tow charge.
